I'd like to see a set of j2ee-oriented archetypes, actually. I don't think it's reasonable to expect that everyone in the world will need to have a fully fledged ear/ejb/war project, and trying to push the archetype system as merely a way to publish best practices is a little too limiting, IMO. We can do much, much more with archetypes from a practical/pragmatic standpoint, not the least of which might be to help people gain access to archetypes they can use...
